Motorcycles usually have a higher specific power, but their specific torque is not so much impressive at all. If I were going to mess with the cams, I'd also try to decrease the RPM band to not sacrifice so much torque and also getting it at a lower RPM band, leading to a better throttle response than only "atkinsonizing" it
